Overview

Each chapter explores this topic, shifting the lens from analytic process, to include theoretical assumptions, and professional communities. Johnny Larsen shows how the analytic process is a journey, no less profound than the epic journeys depicted in the classic literature of Homer and repeated in the patient's own heroic and painful stories. Weaving literary references into the clinical experience of psychoanalysis, Johnny Larsen reveals the transformative power of the analytic process for the patient and for the analyst. By relating the ancient past to our current struggles, psychoanalyst and patient together are guided to a destination, a life of meaning in the universe of possibilities. It is intended for psychoanalysts, psychoanalytically oriented psychotherapists, and mental health clinicians. It will also be accessible to those outside the clinical profession, even to individuals who have little understanding of psychoanalysis.
